Safety and Immunogenicity of Personalized Genomic Vaccine and Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) to Treat Glioblastoma

NCT03223103

Description:

The purpose of this study is to use precision medicine in the form of a vaccine, a mutation-derived tumor antigen vaccine (MTA-based vaccine) in combination with standard care treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) and Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields). The study is designed to determine whether this treatment combination is well tolerated and safe.

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to use precision medicine in the form of a vaccine, a mutation-derived tumor antigen vaccine (MTA-based vaccine) in combination with standard care treatment of glioblastoma (GBM) and Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields). The study is designed to determine whether this treatment combination is well tolerated and safe.

Detailed Description

      This is a single-arm, single institution phase 1a / 1b study to test the safety,
      tolerability, and immunogenicity of MTA-based personalized vaccine in patients with newly
      diagnosed GBM along with the use of continual TTFields. MTA-based personalized vaccine is
      prepared in the laboratory with several peptides based on each patient's own tumor sequence.

      The vaccine is given after the radiation and chemotherapy portion of the treatment, in the
      maintenance phase of temozolomide in conjunction with the TTFields.
